The goals of this analysis were to conduct a climate change vulnerability assessment of forest tree species, assess the vulnerability of non-forested habitats to climate change, and propose practical management actions that will work under a variety of future climate scenarios and can be implemented by the national forests in western Washington in cooperation with other land managers.
The focus of this effort is:

A vulnerability assessment of forest tree species and non-forest habitats is underway for national forests across the Pacific Northwest and we would be very interested in any comments or suggestions you would like to share. A summary report will be completed in 2012.
